Identity management is a broad administrative area that deals with identifying individuals in a system (such as a country, a network, or an enterprise) and controlling their access to resources within that system by associating user rights and restrictions with the established identity.
Step-by-step explanation:
Identity Management (ID Management) is also an organisational method to define, authenticate and authorise individuals or groups of people by connecting permission and restrictions with existing identities to access software, systems or networks.
IDM applications come under underlying IT and data processing parasols.
The IdM addresses topics about how people obtain an identification, the responsibilities and, at times, the rights given by an identification, and the tools that help secure that identity.
